Premise
The film revolves around two close friends, Rahuma (Niuma Mohamed) and Najuma (Nafeesa Ali), who share a deep love for each other. However, their lives take an unexpected turn when they both marry the same man, Ahmed (Mohamed Aboobakuru), as Rahuma is unable to conceive. In a selfless act, Rahuma urges her best friend Najuma to marry Ahmed to fulfill his dreams of having a family. Despite the pain, Najuma agrees, hoping for their collective happiness.
Upon marrying Ahmed, Najuma becomes pregnant during their honeymoon trip, bringing joy to the entire family. Unfortunately, their happiness is disrupted by Najuma's manipulative elder sister (Arifa Ibrahim) and her brother-in-law, Ajuwad (Chilhiya Moosa Manik) who seek to seize their wealth. Their scheming creates a rift between Ahmed and Rahuma. Influenced by them, Ahmed is convinced that Najuma cannot coexist with a barren woman, as it poses a threat to her pregnancy. The narrative takes an unexpected twist when Rahuma becomes pregnant, triggering doubt in Najuma's mind about Rahuma's motives. Fearing the worst, Najuma decides to take matters into her own hands, leading to further complications.
